Thanks, I have ads blocked, fairly sure that none were playing any U-tube or other graphics, no adobe flash. Looking at System monitor, barely a Gig of memory is being used and swap is NOT being used at all. There is 4 Gig of ram. CPU #2 is running at 100% most of the time during the atlas build, CPU #1 sometimes goes to 96% at the same time that #2 is at 100% - so I'm GUESSING that Atlas is CPU bound and I assume it SHOULD BE during the timing tests ?
I'm trying to find out what the Atlas build errors 2 and 255 mean, hopefully that will lead me somewhere ?
